MILWAUKEE -- Tuesday brought further clarity on the plan for Brewers catcher Jonathan Lucroy, who is scheduled to begin a Minor League rehabilitation assignment Thursday at Class A Advanced Brevard County before rejoining the big league club as soon as Monday in St. Louis.
"I'm excited. Being on the DL is terrible," said Lucroy, who has been on the disabled list since suffering a fractured left big toe April 20. "It is nice to be able to get back on the field and get back to doing my job."
On Tuesday, Lucroy took batting practice with the team and ran the bases with no issue.
